Wardlaw Masoleum Wardlaw Road, Kirkhill IV5 7NB (limited) Saturday 1 and Sunday 2 September, 10am - 4pm The burial place of the Lovat Frasers, Wardlaw Mausoleum was erected in 1634 on the gable end of the medieval Wardlaw Parish Church. Built by William Ross, Master Mason, its notable features include a monument to Thomas 11th Lord Lovat and the buckle quoins in the east corner below the belfry which is dated 1722. There are also six lead lined coffins in the crypt, including one which until recently was thought to belong to Simon 12th Lord Lovat, ‘The Old Fox”, beheaded in London after the 1745 Jacobite rebellion. The mausoleum was renovated by the locally-formed Wardlaw Mausoleum Trust with funding from Historic Scotland and the Heritage Lottery Fund in 1998. During the works, a fine quatrefoil window, thought to have been dedicated by Euphemia Fraser in 1341, was exposed in the west gable.

Whilst it is typical of the Presbyterian plain style, it surpasses most others in size and in the boldness and elegance of its detail. The North Church congregation split from East Church (Church of Scotland) and joined the Free Church of Scotland during the 1843 Disruption. The interior, which can seat 1300, has been restored with stencil work on the barrel ceiling. The box below the pulpit was for the Precentor who led the singing. Now either a precentor or a keyboard player lead the praise. w: www.freenorthchurch.org t: 01463 231981 e: [email protected] 6.

  • Worship at St. John's Church Forres
    Christmas Fair 20th October 2018 St Leonard’s Church Hall A big thank you to all who helped Photographs by Michael 2 From the Rectory Greetings! Colours of autumn have been well on dis- play and are already giving way for the grey frames of trees. Leaves on the trees and those flying around on roads and in our gar- dens remain visible manifestations of the season we are in. Besides those colours of nature, shades of orange and black are around decorating the windows of some places marking Halloween. Also, the red col- our of poppy flowers is now beginning to appear on coats. Different objects marking the significance of different occasions and sentiments, but all contributing to our visual senses and complementing the colours of autumn. In the worship life of the church, we will soon be ending this liturgical year with the celebration of Christ the King and will enter into Advent – a time of reflection on waiting and preparation. Amidst the vi- brancy of colours and preparations for Christmas, the less vibrant colour of purple and the meaning of the season it signifies in the liturgical calendar around this time of the year can easily be overlooked. Just as there was much waiting and preparation for the coming of Christ child, we are reminded during the season of Advent the need for patient waiting on the revelations of God and preparations that are reflect- ed in our everyday living for the coming of the Kingdom of God. I invite you to use the opportunities provided in our church to reflect upon these themes together as a church community.

  • Bathing Water Profile for Nairn (Central)
    Bathing Water Profile for Nairn (Central) Nairn, Scotland _____________ Current water classification https://www2.sepa.org.uk/BathingWaters/Classifications.aspx Today’s water quality forecast http://apps.sepa.org.uk/bathingwaters/Predictions.aspx _____________ Description Nairn (Central) bathing water is situated on the Moray Firth, next to the town of Nairn. It is a shallow bay, about 1 km long. Nairn is a popular seaside resort. As well as families, the beach is also popular with a variety of water sports enthusiasts, including sailors, windsurfers and kite surfers. During high and low tides the approximate distance to the water’s edge can vary from 0–160 metres. The beach slopes gently towards the water. For local tide information see: http://easytide.ukho.gov.uk/EasyTide/ Site details Local authority Highland Council Year of designation 1999 Water sampling location NH 88227 57117 Bathing water ID UKS7616037 Catchment description The catchment draining into the Nairn (Central) bathing water extends to 338 km2. The area varies in topography from high mountains in the south-west to low-lying areas along the coast. The River Nairn is the main river in the bathing water catchment. It bisects the Nairn (Central) and Nairn (East) bathing waters. Prevailing currents tend to carry fresh water from the River Nairn eastwards towards Nairn (East) bathing water. However, the river can still influence the Nairn (Central) bathing water. Land use in the River Nairn catchment is largely agricultural. There is intensively farmed arable land in the lower catchment with rough pasture and livestock farming more common further inland. Approximately 1% of the bathing water catchment is urban.
